    HTML5 is the future. Much better in every aspect, and will make coding much more friendly.

    HTML is a markup language that is used to build static webpages. HTML5 is the latest revision of HTML containing much better support for media like video and audio tags. Audio and video has internal specifications and has separate tags ie <audio> and <video>.

    Thanks in advance,
    David

    There is no doubt that when it comes to presentations, graphics and attraction then Flash is better choice as its graphics are much clear and attractive but when it is concerned about SEO, Google tracking/listing then you need to go with HTML 5.
    If you are concerned with normal comparison then both have some advantages and disadvantages different from the other one. I would suggest you to read a post at readwritewebdotcom 'Does HTML5 Really Beat Flash? The Surprising Results of New Tests'. I am sure you will find you answer.

    HTML is a markup language that is used to build static webpages.

    HTML 5 is an updated version of HTML. It’s much similar to HTML. But difference is HTML 5 contains much better support for media such as, an audio and video tag.

    Not always...
    I find the semantic tags annoying so I'm back to good old DIVs
    which I can select with IDs and classes and do whatever I want to them w. jquery.
    I wasted couple of days trying to convert old DIVs to their "more semantic" equivalent,
    only to see that they broke my page. Damn... I'm sure HTML5 is great and all that noise,
    but so far for me it simply ended up wasting my time.
    The Canvas tag looks pretty impressive though ...
